"Right down the street from Trattoria Carina is Doobie’s, which is a cash-only dive that, at first glance, might not seem exactly like a great place to have a quiet post-pasta drink. But this is a place where magic happens. Not the kind of magic that Usher talks about in his 2006 episode of MTV Cribs, but the kind that turns a date from benign, polite questions about each other’s jobs to getting embarrassingly competitive over a game of Scrabble or swing dancing to whatever song is up on the jukebox." - sydney mcelwee
